When you start up QPC2, there is a dialog box with a setting 'Power Management'. When I set this to 'off', QPC2 almost constantly uses 100% of one CPU core. When set to 'on', I noticed no significant increase in CPU utilisation when idle. There's also a setting 'suspend'; I don't know off-hand what ...

Hi Jan, yes the 512x384 highcolor mode is also my favorite, and I find it nice to work with, except a few programs which were apparently designed for huge screens. Of course the Q68 has not nearly 68060 speed, that was never the goal. It is rather an update path for people coming from the QL or (S)...

Hi Fabrizio, can you send me a personal email with your address? And yes, the Q68 speed is not very suitable for normal work in highcolour+highres at the same time. If you don't need highcolour, just highres, maybe 1024x768 DISP_MODE 4 helps. Peter I personally like the 512x384 mode. Gives correct ...

As long time secretary of the Dutch SIN_QL_AIR foundation he will be remembered by many international QL'ers. He was the driving force behind many great E...

Hi, Jan Bredenbeek's Eprom Programmer, it looks to have all the functionality of QEP, details are located here: http://qlforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=1392&start=10#p17898 and the manin QL Eprommer thread: http://qlforum.co.uk/viewtopic.php?f=2&t=2010#p17905 I did say in the 1990s, I ...

So, the SCR_ channel opens, and returns $2A6CA8 as the channel Id in A0. At least, it did in the last test. QMON2 told me so. This should have rung a bell, as channel IDs should never have such a high value in the lower word. The lower word is an index value in the channel table which never exceeds...

I don't know about SMSQ/E. But I thought that in QDOS, when a job is started, SuperBASIC moves down in memory, and the new job goes above it. Likewise if the job above SuperBASIC ends, SuperBASIC moves up. Or have I got this all wrong? No, you're right at least with QDOS/Minerva. Under SMSQ/E and S...
